Description

How We Crafted It

Crafted with meticulous care, our gin begins with fresh oranges and lemons, open-cask fermented to capture their vibrant zest and natural character. The heads and tails are distilled in stainless steel alembics to ensure clarity and purity, while the heart of the alcohol is refined in copper for richness and balance. Finally, the gin is run through a copper alembic fitted with a basket brimming with botanicals — juniper berries, coriander, angelica, lavender, liquorice, chamomile, and the fragrant skins of lemons and oranges — weaving a spirit of layered aromatics and elegant complexity.


Pairing Notes

  • Smoked chicken — the gin’s citrus lift and herbal core complement savoury smokiness.
  • Seafood dishes — from oysters to grilled prawns, its freshness enhances delicate marine flavours.
  • Cheese platter — soft and creamy cheeses pair beautifully with the gin’s botanical depth.
